“…This was recently shown for EUS in pancreatic cancer staging. [5][6][7] In addition, comparisons between EUS and helical CT in the clinical staging of pancreatic cancer have yielded conflicting results. 4 8 10-12 Of the potentially responsible methodological factors, blinding towards other imaging tests is a criterion rarely applied.…”

“…Endoscopic ultrasound has been described as a highly sensitive method, but results for accuracy, especially in the staging of pancreatic cancer, differ. Initial studies showed excellent accuracy up to 94%, but early euphoria flew away, and results in later publications declined (Table 2 and [5][6][7][8][9][10][11]). Accuracy seems to be around 60% to 70%.…”
